The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing people that "censorship" means "not being able to scream slurs in other people's faces" and not "you will forbidden from conducting scientific research if you use any one of these keywords".

I'm gonna keep reposting examples of people not taking shit because it's important for us to see that you can, simply, reject the shit. Say "Uh... no no no, we will not be tolerating that."

A good thing to do if you are flailing a bit right now (as who is not??) is to get in touch with your own values, the things that you find life affirming and necessary in the world. Read some inspiring works about things you value - labor solidarity, scientific achievement, social justice.

If your writing didn’t matter, they wouldn’t be going after our books and our stories and desperately trying to rewrite them and/or destroy them. Language is power.

Please stop believing we don’t owe each other anything. We owe each other so much! We owe each other love, equity, understanding, community, compassion, and much more. Don’t let this toxic hyper individualism cut you off from humanity. We’re all connected. We all need each other.

We're stoked to introduce the 'No Gen AI' seal for indie games! Indie devs can use it on their game's store page to assure potential players that their game was made without the use of Generative AI. You can grab it from the Polygon Treehouse website:- www.polygon-treehouse.com/no-gen-ai-seal

Google - grow the fuck up. Apt chapter I just read in a book. It explains the power of cartography (making of maps) and why the naming of places is important. In case you are one of those thinking renaming a body of water is not a big deal. Taken from ‘Serpent, Siren, Maelstrom and Myth’.

A thing I learned making bad student films: if there's something important that you don't want the audience/reader to notice, you have to draw attention to it so that they remember that they didn't notice it. Otherwise they actually don't notice it and the ending doesn't work. Writing is horrible.

Using AI to produce writing or art is like asking someone at the gym to lift weights for you. The effort is the point.

My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some of those things #Thread

Urgent trans and nonbinary update: I called a passport office and got a sympathetic rep who told me officially any information about gender markers is posted online. Unofficially, they literally whispered, they have heard the same rumors about passports being confiscated.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

What you are doing by deadnaming Caitlyn Jenner is telling the trans people around you that your support is conditional, as well as tipping your hand as to how you actually see us.

If nothing else I hope folks snap out of it a little and listen to marginalized communities. Screw your avoidance of discomfort, your refuge of disbelief; you can't seek personal safety amidst the same Horrors that need defeating It's gonna be your job to fight the false comfort of polite tolerance

"[Interesting games writing is] writing that makes me reflect on the gameworld and how it was created." Everything Florence writes is gold, and this is no exception. We don't gauge literature by plot alone. We pay attention to how it plays with language. It's fitting we do the same for games.

the difference between "we can procedurally generate narratives that adapt to the player" and "we can use chatGPT to generate narratives" is a bit like the difference between "we can use food processors and other tools to speed up making food" and "if we throw food on the floor maybe it'll be good"
